Pyga OneForty650 Pascoe X01

Bikes from South Africa’s Pyga Industries are still a rare sight on global trails. If you find yourself behind a Pascoe though take a good look – because it’s likely you’ll soon be eating its dust.

The Pascoe was already one of our top workaholic trail bikes, and the 2015 model gets tweaked cable routing and a half-degree slacker, angled headset-compatible head tube.

On South African builds, Pyga specs a 150mm fork (the same length as the one we tested this time out, and 10mm shorter than the Pascoe we put through its paces in 2014) making for a 67-degree head angle. Pop a 160mm model on instead, like the RCT3 Pike that our last OneForty650 Pascoe was fitted with, and you'll be looking at 66.5 degrees.

The seat tube is shorter and slightly steeper than previously too, but the frame still only comes in three sizes.
